Well, I have been very busy, picking up extra hours at work, running over to Mom's to do laundry(our one dryer in the building is out of service--a month now), and general day to day stuff.
So, a brief update:
Item 1: As some of you all know, I have been designated to train new cashiers at work. My latest adventure has been training Princess. Yes, laugh if you must. I do, but to myself. How could you do that to a child? I just don't get it.
Item 2: Said trainee confesses to me, after I filed her tax forms, that her husband gets paid cash, so they don't need to pay taxes on his income. And then, out of the blue, asks how we find out if someone is stealing. Big, major, flying-in-my-face red flags here!!!!! This was only her second day, and she's asking how we catch thieves! Hello!!! Anyway, after training session #2, I immediately phoned my supervisor with my suspicions. She agrees with me, but we have to wait and see if she does anything.
Item 3: Spent day off #1 doing laundry at Mom's for like, 6 hours. Sam doesn't nap if we're not home. He'll just lay there and scream. So I ended up with a cranky Sam, and Michael ended up with a cranky Jen AND Sam. Sorry Mike, love.....
Item 4: Day off #2 (next day) I did absolutley nothing that wasn't relaxing, except for diaper changes. It was wonderful, and it even rained most of the day! Near perfection. After dinner we, all three of us, watched the "Sea Hawks". Old B&W movie with Errol Flynn. He is a handsome devil! Wooo-Hoooo! Sam discovered he likes Kettle Corn. All around good day.
Item 5: TODAY..... grocery shopping. I like it, I hate it. I shop at my place of employment, so everyone stops to chat and play with Sam, so it takes me two hours to complete my trip. Unloading groceries in the Midwest August heat and humidity, a 22 pound boy in one arm, two bags of food swinging from the other. Four trips in all, back and forth between the car and our apartment. Needless to say, afterwards we had lunch, and as soon as Sam went in for a nap, I crashed my lazy butt on the sofa! I still need to put half of the groceries away (canned goods and such), and then its my turn to make dinner for my coworkers. I have to get going on that and be at work by 5pm.
Okay, so it wasn't so brief! Anyhow, I can't wait til tonight's over. Princess and I are paired up again tonight, and I don't know how I'll be. I watch her like a hawk, trying not to be obvious, paranoid she might try something with the cash drawer. Stress I do not need! Whatever, I have a wonderful husband and son to come home to, even if they'll be asleep when I get back.
On a different note, has anyone heard of LimeWire? It's a music-file sharing program. I've only heard a few people talking about how cool it is, but would like some input from people I know and trust. If you've used it, let me know how you think it is (ease-of-use, safety issues, etc.) Thanks a bunch!

I don't really know anything about Limewire, but I stay away from anything that might cause my computer to die.
So what's the scoop on Princess? Any illegalities yet??
Princess update!!!!!!
She continues to play the scratcher tickets like a mad woman... and her story about how/ why she's moved to StL continues to change and evolve each day. Something is fishy here, stay tuned for more info....
LIMEWIRE UPDATE!!!!!
We've found that my one brother in law loves this LimeWire. We're waiting to see if any damage has been done to his computer before we give it a try ourselves. I'll let you know how it works out
Princess sounds interesting. Should be a source of entertainment for awhile. :-)
Princess has been terminated from our employment. They caught her on camera taking $5 from her cash drawer and then walking over to buy a scratch-off ticket. The ticket wasn't even a winner, AND she lost her job over five bucks. SHE'S the real loser!
